You are right...  ApplicationServices is not listed in my Frameworks in 
my XCode project.  The question arises then, how is my project 
compiling if I don't have CGDirectDisplay.h included???  And if it is 
included in some automatic way,  wouldn't I want XCode to search those 
Header files also, when I do a Search??

It seems I will need this... since XCode can't do the search.

thanks everyone,
